if you want some more distinct stone bricks, i highly reccomend painting the individual bricks in different colours, like brown, yellow, blue and others, before you drybrush and such, if you do it right they get a small gradient in them which makes them look like they took stones from different regions
I think the term you were looking for was an "overbrush." Great tutorial! ;)
Haha cheers =)
You can always use tooth picks to anchor the foam pieces while you are waiting for the PVA glue to set.
Wyloch over at Wyloch's Armory just finished his interior to the Tomb of Horrors. You guys should get together and smush your builds together!
Hey, if after you have dented the foam you can spray prime it or use modge podge (other varnishes are available) to give it a bit of a coating which will make PVA glue stick. Or you can use Gorilla glue (just dont overboard with it since it will foam up)
Henson studios and puppet makers use Barge liqiud cement when they glue foam for puppets. Might be worth a try. Sets pretty quick and very durable
This is beautifully done! Superb work!
If only the actual Gygax module of Tomb of Horrors had so straight-forward an entrance as this! ;)
Since the PVA glue dries in air, it will take a while to dry between two slabs of foam like this, but you can use hot glue, or various DIY adhesives like No More Nails, etc. Hot Glue is probably the most versatile, but make sure your gluegun doesn't get too hot otherwise you can still melt the foam!
I've used a combination of the above on some of my terrain builds - downside of a lot of the no more nails type adhesives is that they dry hard, and can become brittle as there's no flex in them, but there can be in the foam.
Well done brother. Never enough terrain..... 🤘🏼
Cheers bud, there is lots more coming as Im building several sets for my D&D campaign =)
Cool build again. It's ur creation but I think a light black wash across all the stone would really make it pop.
I really like the new direction your channel has taken!
Looks superb. The details *do* really make it pop.
Cheers budy, Im finally making things I will be using/playing with, only taken me 14 months lol =)
Wow this project was awesome! I really like the way the foam parts and 3d printed bits mesh together to make a believable set piece. Any player would be lucky to play on a map this well made, great work Jon. I don't know where you hid the time to do all this in between the manta streams but I'm so glad you found the opportunity.
Cheers bud, Im quiet with weddings so have lots of time to build, I have 4 projects on the go at anytime lol. Sanding the tau manta next week, video should be out in about 2 weeks =)
Ohhh, more D&D terrain. I can't wait for the premier!
Yup, just waiting for the tau manta to harden so doing some D&D stuff =)
We soooo love your videos and your creativity its how you say in english it makes us want to restart the hobby and do new things like you do! Greetings from Belgium. ;)
Fantastic! :D
Quick tip for greenstuff: If you mix it, then let it wait a bit before working with it (depends on your local conditions so test it, but around here it's around 15-20 minutes or so), it will be still just as easy to work with, but will no longer be sticky, to the point that you won't need to wet your tools
Love the video. You and some other channels I use for inspiration on some things. I use low temp hot glue when putting bigger pieces together
Gorrilla glue: construction adhesive. Best bond for foam wood and other small bits and peices. It's also rather tacky so that you can work while it drys.
Cheers i will try some construction adhesive =)
Looks absolutely ace!
Thank you, Im very happy with it =)
Use pva glue but use toothpick to hold pieces in place while they dry.
Really want one of those dice rollers. Unfortunately US postal is never cheap
Since foam is fairly easy to pierce you could just stab in some toothpics in it while you wait for the glue to set, I've also seen people cover the parts in pva and dotting (very gently) the foam with hot glue so that they get a quick bond while the pva does the rest, being careful of course that the heat doesn't melt it. I'd try it with some offcuts first if I were you, also since your channel is famous for the sprue reuse, watch out for acetone since foam is the same type of plastic and it will almost completely dissolve in contact with it.
Yeah I have tried the hot glue I have but it does melt it lol =)
That looks great 👍👍
Hi and impressive D&D terrain piece
Fast setting PVA glue? You need Aleene's Tacky Glue!! I stopped using my hot glue gun since I discovered that glue!
Love ALL of your videos with the upbeat and positive vibes. Also your painting is awesome, don't doubt yourself bud :) Excellent work on the piece and the video ! PS- I love when you make mistakes and add it in there. Makes people like me feel like we are not alone when things don't always go to plan/don't come out perfect the first try. Learn, Laugh, and then push on is what the hobby needs...and you sir do it very well...thank you :)
Thank you so much for the lovely comments =)
We love the way this project turned out! So many details. Amazing work, Jon! Now let's find some enemies for those heroes ;)
Thank you so much Andrea, your figures are amazing and Im already printing a couple of the new ones you sent me to be used in the next build =)
I had no idea that Gamemaster line of products was from Army Painter
They do do a lot of great stuff =)
Soo-purb. I think a black wash would really do something for it (as someone else has noted).
No nails glue sets a bit quicker than ova I also where possible use toothpicks to anchor the foam I conjunction with both ova an no nails
I will be trying that in my next build, thank you =)
Great build, you should check out Wylochs Armory he built the full tomb of horrors map in 3D. It truly looked epic when it was all laid out
Where did you find those door locks and other little details to print?
Looks great! Are those lil gargoyles from Artisan Guild?
That's pretty ninja. Though what's on the other side of the door. Hint, hint.
Loving your builds mate keep up the good work
Thank you so much =)
Sir, Greetings from Cuba, i have a question. Here in my country our community live thanks to donations so we don't have sprues to create something big than a set of scenery, so i was thinking if is possible to melt other plastics? Is easy for us find some plastic on dumpsters or something that get sprues. And we really need this info because here we don't have scenery and i want to create something for W40K and other games.
Hiya, Im not sure what else melts in acetone as Ive never tried anything other than sprues, it would be a case of trying and seeing what works =)
Btw Happy new year to you!
my sprues melt but don't seem to be as runny as yours is there any special technique?
Am I the only one who cleaned off the screen of their phone thinking that's what it was? 😂
Does the hot glue gun melt it? Or would that work?
If it's on the low setting you are good.
The one I have does melt it a bit =P
you know what's always worth a great lot of money?
"How much is a D20 worth?!"
gambling is always fun.
Hope your game went well.
It really did, Im a player in a weekly campaign so its great to be back in D&D and I cant wait to DM some games very soon =)
hI!
Hiya =)
try HOT GLUE.
I have but my one melts it lol =)
Lmao why do the men have armour but the woman is in a bikini
So the Tau Manta was shelved for this? That's a shame!!!!
Nope Im waiting for it to fully harden so I can sand it down, a I always mention I have at least 3-4 projects on the go =P and yes I disliked this message
